Chemical Information
FooDB Name3-Hexen-1-ol
Descriptioncis-3-Hexen-1-ol, also known as (Z)-3-hexen-1-ol and leaf alcohol, is a colorless oily liquid with an intense grassy-green odor of freshly cut green grass and leaves. It is produced in small amounts by most plants and it acts as an attractant to many predatory insects. cis-3-Hexen-1-ol is a very important aroma compound that is used in fruit and vegetable flavors and in perfumes. The yearly production is about 30 tonnes. 3-Hexen-1-ol is found in many foods, some of which are pot marjoram, chinese cinnamon, black walnut, and lemon.
